ATLANTIC ADAM: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

ATLANTIC ADAM against its type

Built in 2007, it is 5 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 16,960 gross tonnage it is smaller than 96% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 17 bulk carriers here under the San Marino flag, 0.2% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 80 other vessels here, 51 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it MARIA THEO1 for 2018–2022 and ATLANTIC ADAM for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2018–2021), then MONROVIA (2022), then San Marino (2024–2025).

Its 1,166 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 65% below the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 201.8 kg CO₂, 24% below the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 597 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 8.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2021 to 51 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 1,457 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 51st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 8.0.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 145,931,164 tonne-miles over 5,777 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 58.2% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2021 to 2024, emissions fell 58.2% while distance sailed fell 66.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 24.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
